Large Fenced Yard + Pet First Aid ⛑

Pet care experience

Hey all, I have been running a small group dogboarding and daycare out of my home for the last 5 years with dozens of past clients. We take no more than a maximum of 6 dogs at a time, to ensure they have the highest quality of comfort and attention. I love and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes, have a large fenced in yard and typically take each dog out for group exercise 4 times a day. I used to own two large dogs; a German Shepherd & Rottweiler but currently own the exact opposite; a small shy Sheltie we adopted from one of our past clients. I knew I was the perfect fit for dog-sitting after I noticed how much my friend enjoyed taking care of other dogs & naturally I had to get involved. When I was younger I had such a great a passion for being around animals I was convinced I would wind up a zoologist or vet. My biggest priority is making you and your dog feel comfortable and the questions I ask when we meet will reflect that. Message me to set up a meet and greet or ask any questions, I’d love to chat! Dogboarding and Daycare is our full time business. Your pet will have constant supervision and all the attention they need within our home. Your pet’s safety and comfort is our priority 😊 I have a large fenced in yard connected to my house and take the dogs out 4 times a day for about 30 minutes each session. This can vary depending on your dog’s age or varying weather conditions.

We boarded our dog for the first time with Kevin and were very pleased. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about how to handle our dog as well as multiple dogs simultaneously in his home. He took care to make sure our dog felt comfortable and even administered medication to her. We will definitely use him again.

Kevin is incredibly knowledgeable and goes the extra mile. Ayra looked like she had a great time and we received frequent updates with photos and videos. He was also extremely accommodating when our flight was delayed, leading to a late night collection. Great property with large fenced play area. Highly recommended.

Kevin took the time prior to sitting for us to meet with Brandy & I. I must say he was & still is the most organized & detailed of anyone else, so far as gathering all possible info about our dog, her care & gathering special needs or concerns before actually sitting. It was the perfect decision to let Brandy meet with him & see how they connected before using his services. By the time we actually booked about three weeks later, she was so excited to see him again. She ran straight towards him as if they were old friends. It was easy to leave her with him & feel relaxed & confident that she was in good hands. Got regular updates. Kevin clearly is a natural with dogs. He is extremely professional, yet personable, caring & friendly. When we picked her up she was beside herself silly & happy, running with him to meet us. There is absolutely no doubt that Brandy will be hanging with Kevin again. He is the best.

I left my dog with Kevin for a few days and everything went great. I highly recommend Kevin to watch your dog. The fenced in yard is a plus. I will ask Kevin to watch my dog in the future.
